Ways to fix the education system are like assholes
Everyone's got one.
Everyone's got one.
Public boarding schools.
Lots of folks are hurting financially these days, so there's a lot of distraction for teenagers and not enough structure. Boarding schools will go a long way to solving that.
I also think what Obama mentioned in the SOTU address is a great idea: pre-school for all, not just those who can afford it.
Far from structure, outside of class, it is much easier for students to become distracted, since one residential advisor cannot possibly supervise a hall of 30 students and keep track of there whereabouts and how they're spending time.
